@ Your Library: Picture Book Month

Picture books inspire imagination and create a foundation for a lifetime love of reading. They contain the silliest stories (why DO monsters love underpants?) and explore the difficulties of life and growing up all within a few short pages. November is Picture Book Month, and to celebrate we want to highlight some of our favorite picture books.

Noisy Nora by Rosemary Wells I loved this book as a child. It was the first book I "read" independently - I could recite it from memory. - Tyra (Basha)

Doctor De Soto by William Steig The story is clever and funny. Plus, everyone can identify with going to the dentist! - Mary (Downtown)

The Napping House by Audrey Wood I love the story and illustrations. Moreover, children love it! - Jess (Basha)

No, David! by David Shannon It was the first book my daughter read to me. - Ted (Downtown)

Good Night, Gorilla by Peggy Rathmann I love reading this book with my son. I love that it doesn't have very many words, so we can choose how we want to narrate it. There are also lots of little details that you notice the more times you read it. - Lindsay (Sunset)
